After entering the Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK) halfway through in 2018, GSR Racing’s Glenn Scott has outlined his intentions for a full-time return to the series this season.

Once again piloting a ZX-10R with the support of Kawasaki Motors Australia, Scott will operate a self-managed squad as he endeavours to take out top privateer honours in the seven round championship.

“It’s nice to be back for another year of racing,” Scott explained. “The last few years have been up and down due to injury, so it’s nice to be starting the season fit and healthy. I have to send a special thank you to Stephen Mion from Fitmoto for my training program that has put me in the best shape possible for the 2019 season.

“I’m highly motivated for the year ahead and I cannot wait to hit the track. I’m really excited to have my supporters back on board for 2019, it feels great to have that local support and backing from people who are so passionate about bikes and racing.”

The New South Welshman wound up 18th in the championship standings in 2018 after completing four of seven rounds. His first outing of the year will be at Phillip Island’s official ASBK test on 2-3 February.
